How do I clean Malware that is hijacking my browser search results?

My Google search results are hijacked in all three browsers installed on my PC, Firefox, Chrome and IE 8.  I am also getting the "Congratulations You Won" and "Oh my god no way" audip ramdonly played.

Here's my HijackThis log:

using firefox (probably best)
download malware bytes:
http://majorgeeks.com/Malwarebytes_Anti-Malware_d5756.html

update and run it.

also you can run combofix by downloading it from:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/anti-virus/combofix

ran together they should be able to fix it.

also check your hosts file.
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

there should be only 1 entry in there - like
127.0.0.1

Ran both Malwarebytes and Combofix.  Both found and deleted a number of problems but I am still getting browser redirects to Google search results.

As optoma had already suggested, run TDSSKiller.

TDSSKiller
http://support.kaspersky.com/downloads/utils/tdsskiller.zip 


Here's an article of a search engine hijackers.
Google Hijack" - Google Search gets redirected
https://www.experts-exchange.com/Virus_and_Spyware/Latest_Threats/A_3299-Google-Hijack-Google-Search-Gets-Redirected.html
Here's the Combofix log.  After running Combofix and Malwarebytes, downloaded and Installed Microsoft Security Essentials,  I had been using McAfee Anti-virus plus.  The Microsoft Security Essentials full scan identified and cleaned about a dozen other problems that had not been identified by by the other utilities.  After a reboot and a second clean scan, all seems to be working fine.  I have not run TDSSKiller, since things look good right now.  That's optoma for getting me going with the utilities and I appreciate rpggamergirl for providing the article link.
ComboFix.txt
All the suggestions are good ones and I also recommend the same, but you might also want to try another shot in the dark... the most obvious...

Clear all your caches! Each browser may have different cache folders, so make sure you check them all... and also clear all your cookies... When cookies go bad, mommy throws them out!

It may help... Good luck!
dsullivan54,

A script still needs to be run, you're too quick closing this question.

ComboFix had deleted a lot of bad files there, you really should've at least awarded some points to dauman who suggested ComboFix in the first place, since you didn't even use the TDSSKiller that optoma had suggested.


@ dauman,

There's no doubt that you deserve some points. If you want to, just hit that "Request Attntion" button for the Mods to redistribute points.
My apologies to dauman - rpggamergirl is correct and I should have awarded you points for this fix since the suggested the solution first came from you.  If you want to "Request Attribution", I am happy to support that.  Yesterday was a long day and night trying to get the problem addressed and I did close it too quickly.  This was my first question posted to Experts as most often I have my solutions already in existence by just searching.  Thanks to all of you for your quick response and solid advice.

I did run the TDSSKiller script and it found no issues.  I have attached the log.  Things still appear to working just fine.  Thanks again everyone for all of the help.
